3pm Friday 25 January, outside E-On London offices, 100 Pall Mall, nr
Trafalgar Square
E-On is the company behind the new drive to coal and is a classic corporate
polluter - its coal and gas plants specialist in pumping out CO2 into the
atmosphere. It is the world’s 53rd largest company, with assets worth a
staggering $168 billion and in 2006 it made a cool $6.4 billion in profit.
E-on have recently one planning permission from Medway council for a new
coal fired power station at Kingsnorth and the application is now sitting on
Gordon Brown’s desk awaiting his approval. We say no to a new coal power
station at Kingsnorth! Yes to massive investment in renewable energy!
As part of the World Social Forum call to action there will be a direct
action picket at E-on¹s London offices on the 25th January. This action has
been initiated by Revolution, the socialist youth and students group, and
Green Party students at the LSE. For more information about the action, to
get involved or to add your organisation¹s support, then email luke at
worldrevolution.org.uk
Demand that E.On abandons its plans and that renewable energy production
methods are used instead!
